They became standard on the 06 early summer. Gray I was ordered in March 06 and didn't have them. Not available at all in 05. Standard in 07.

 

Yeah it would be pretty nice to have 170 degree hinges... I use the rear part of the cab alot at work...it would come in real handy...

 

I checked on these about six months ago. I am certain they will fit the truck. The doors were not changed nor was the body. Only the hinges. The problem is that they are like $110.00 each. My dealer here in Phoenix, AZ offered to give them to me at a lower multiplier(25% off list if I heard him right).My usualservice advisor said they would try to put them on for T&M. I think it would be much cheaper to give it a try myself. You'll notice one of the mounting bolts goes from inside the cab to the outside and all of the others go the other way. The plastic trim inside each rear door will need to be removed to fit 'em due to that one stupid bolt. I am justcheap and do not yet want to part with the $400.00+ to try these. I plan to soon as I'm tired of when you park next to soeone it's hard to get your crap out of the back because the doors are in the way. Again I don't see why they won't fit and niether did my dealer. BTW... how the heck could something like this possibly void your warranty? It makes no sense.

 

It sure would have been nice to have the front seats still tilt forward as my '94 CC. It's a tight fit putting stuff in unless you move the seat forward even with the 170 doors.

 

Some hinge pics 170 degree. A peice of work!
